Given Google's all-consuming ambitions it seems a good thing that other web powerhouses are trying to compete:

eBay plans to sell ads through other Web sites (http://today.reuters.co.uk/News/NewsArticle.aspx?type=internetNews&storyID=2006-06-10T182439Z_01_N10218835_RTRIDST_0_OUKIN-UK-EBAY-ADVERTISING.XML)

anyone know if like adsense the ads are going to be country or region specific, if ebay could have the bid price in users country currency that would be Amazing.

I would imagine yes. If they somehow overlook it, they'll probably add it very soon after.

But since advertisers are obviously going to want to restrict their ads to specific regions or markets, I can't imagine that eBay would ignore that.
